Let's talk about content.

[Paul Markham]

Good content = Lots of good traffic.

Why?

Because eventually all the smoke, mirrors and any other tricks employed the quality and quantity of your traffic relies on one thing. The amount of money affiliates make and this is reliant on the conversion ratios which come from the product you sell. PORNO.

If you have bad content you will be getting bad conversion ratios and will be forever trying to find and keep affiliates. Plus there is so much poor, mediocre porn on the Net a good site stands out.

Sin, photography (good or bad) is not pornography and we all make money from pornography in this business. I'm one of the top teen pornographers in the business and could not earn a dime as a photographer.

The skills of producing amateur porn has nothing to do with camera skills or a good or bad photography.

Good point Jace, whether you have good or bad site you still need to work it. But a site with good content will provide better returns for the same work than a site with bad content. Other things being equal.

The situation here is most people on the Adult Net have excellent programming, site building, design, etc. skills. But how many have skills at porn? For those without those skills they have no options but to drive traffic.

I love this board, I can ALWAYS learn something new.

Hadn't thought of it from that angle before, Paul. Thanks!

From an affiliate point of view....

Traffic is much more important. The sponsor has to have good, up to date, content in order to keep the members but I, as an affiliate, want to just push as many surfers to the sponsor as I can.

This can be accomplished with content but it can be accomplished many other ways too. The danger of me using too good or too much content is that the surfer might just decide that they like my site and want to stay there, so I can't offer too much content and I purposely degrade the quality of my content because I want them wanting more. "Hey, you want the good stuff, click here because if you stay here you will just get more of this blurry crap to use to try to figure out if it makes you horny or not"

Anyway, just imho of course
